Chapter 210: Excited Gong De, Vibration, Drinking Dragon Blood Again

Whoosh-boom—

The roaring sound transmitted from the collision of the waves splashed by the magma sea and the magma surface echoed with what Tang Zheng said.

Lava zone!

All the dwarf craftsmen revealed terrified expressions, retreating backward in unison; some even couldn't stand steadily and fell to the ground.

This was a zone even more terrifying than the Great Rift; the Solar Angler in the magma sea was a magical beast that had lived for a long time and was crowned with the name of a high-level species.

Staying here, one could die at any time!

"Everyone can rest assured, the Solar Angler inside will not disturb everyone; although the temperature here is a bit hot, it is a very quiet place."

Tang Zheng spoke to the group of terrified dwarf craftsmen, opened his mouth lightly, and waved his hand toward the direction of the magma sea behind:

"Lightning Ball."

Hiss-la~

Azure electric light gathered in Tang Zheng's palm, condensing a lightning ball the size of two basketballs, and smashed instantly toward the magma sea behind.

Boom!

Electric light flashed in the air.

Following the lightning ball falling into the magma sea in the distance and making a loud noise, besides the magma fire sparks splashed up on the magma sea surface, there was indeed no other movement inside.

"Gulp."

The sound of swallowing saliva came one after another.

A group of dwarf craftsmen huddled together, looking at Tang Zheng with some fear.

"Third-rank magic: Lightning Ball."

A faint, nervous voice sounded in the group of dwarves.

The dwarves present were not lacking in knowledge; they knew that the magic Tang Zheng had just used was third-rank magic. One had to know that the strongest magic caster in the entire dwarf race was able to use third-rank magic.

Even those who didn't understand.

The power released by the "Lightning Ball" just now was enough to show that the mysterious human in front of them was enough to easily kill everyone present.

What made all the dwarves even more horrified was how the other party had brought them here unknowingly!

This was the lava zone; the distance from the new city they were building was not only far, but the journey was also very dangerous. During the whole process, not a single person among all of them had noticed.

"You are a human, right?"

"We dwarves haven't had trade contact with humans for a long time; why did you bring us here?"

Among the dwarf craftsmen, a dwarf wearing a helmet with a dark brown beard tied into three pigtails walked out first and spoke loudly:

"Old man and everyone are just a group of ordinary civilians; if you want to spy on the intelligence of our dwarf race, you should catch people with higher status."

"Gong De." From the group of dwarves behind, a nervous voice came, seemingly reminding this dwarf who spoke first not to anger the human in front of him.

"What are you afraid of? You coward."

"This guy easily brought us here without being discovered; his strength must be very strong. Anyway, we can't escape; it's a big deal to be killed."

"Stupid Gong De, didn't you see that we are all craftsmen? If this human wants to acquire intelligence, how could he catch us ordinary people."

"I just said, why is everyone so familiar."

"You just discovered it? You idiot!"

"We are all craftsmen; this human wouldn't want us to build houses for him here, would he."

"Maybe it's forging weapons."

"Humans actually like to live in such a high-temperature place?"

"Don't know."

"Didn't everyone discover that everyone here is a craftsman who has mastered Lu En technology."

"Lu En technology? Humans would care about such outdated handicraft? Don't they have simpler magic technology."

"I still like building houses, at least I won't starve to death."

A chaotic and noisy sound kept ringing in this group of dwarves.

Looking at the group of dwarves who had turned into a group in the blink of an eye.

Tang Zheng couldn't help but be stunned.

He had originally thought he needed to spend some time letting this group of dwarves accept it, but it seemed that this group of dwarves had a very high acceptance of the situation in front of them.

They were really a race with a straightforward and direct personality.

No, it couldn't be said entirely like that.

Tang Zheng glanced at the Gray Dwarf Forging Minister beside him; the personality of the gray dwarf race was clearly more violent and dark.

Even for the same race, there were quite obvious differences between different subspecies.

Gong De?

Tang Zheng scanned the dwarf who spoke first; hearing the name, it should be the dwarf who was first encountered by Ainz in the anime.

The opponent didn't have much talent in Lu En technology, but his grandfather and father were both chief Lu En craftsmen in the dwarf race.

Slap!

Seeing the dwarves who were still arguing, Tang Zheng clapped his hands together, interrupting the messy sound of the crowd: "Alright, everyone."

"Let me introduce to everyone; this is a gray dwarf, considered a subspecies of your dwarf race, and is a Lu En craftsman master."

"Everyone appearing here is because I want to ask everyone for help, to forge a piece of defensive gear with the power of Lu En characters."

Hearing what Tang Zheng said,

Not a few dwarves looked curiously at the Forging Minister; it was also their first time seeing a gray dwarf, the skin color was indeed different from theirs, and the appearance was also fiercer.

At the same time!

There were also people who were concerned about forging Lu En defensive gear.

Gong De and others frowned.

"Human, perhaps you don't know much about Lu En technology, or perhaps you heard rumors about Lu En technology from somewhere, and then had this idea."

"To tell you the truth, Lu En technology compared to your human magic technology belongs to technology that has already fallen behind."

A dwarf who looked like he had a longer beard and a serious expression stepped forward and spoke loudly:

"Lu En technology is different from your human magic technology; the key lies in the magical Lu En characters, and these characters have basically been lost."

"What we have mastered are some middle- and low-rank characters; even if we help you forge a piece of Lu En defensive gear, it might not be comparable to magic items."

These words, although they had the suspicion of destroying one's own prestige, were facts.

A group of dwarf craftsmen were even more silent.

Gong De's two thick eyebrows wrinkled, let out a light snort, turned around, and looked at the group of dwarf craftsmen somewhat angrily.

Whether it was his father or grandfather, they were both chief Lu En craftsmen in the dwarf race. He indeed didn't have talent in this aspect, but he also didn't want to see this technology be belittled like this.

Especially still by his own clansmen!

"So, it's because you have such thoughts that this technology keeps declining!"

"Simply stupid to the extreme!"

Gong De shouted loudly in anger, and after speaking, he turned his head to look at Tang Zheng, seemingly to prove the value of Lu En technology:

"Lu En technology also has its advantages, and that is it doesn't cost money!"

"Your human magic technology, although far exceeding our Lu En technology in productivity, requires extremely high costs in magic engineering."

"And Lu En technology doesn't need extra material costs!"

The group of dwarves saw Gong De, whose emotions were somewhat excited, looked at each other, shook their heads slightly, and didn't get angry at what Gong De had just said.

They all understood Gong De's personality very well.

And.

No matter how excited Gong De was, he couldn't deny that Lu En technology had already been outdated technology. However!

A happy laugh came, making all the dwarves look at the human who was laughing blankly.

"That's simply too great, isn't it."

Tang Zheng looked at the excited Gong De with a full smile.

The reason Ainz cared about Lu En technology was because of the problem of not needing extra spending, which was also the point Tang Zheng cared about.

To be precise!

It was just in terms of "money spending," it wasn't actually a big problem; the key was that the other world wasn't a game, and there were basically no high-level materials to forge those top-notch equipment.

And the level of magic equipment manufactured by Lu En technology, the key lay in the "Lu En characters."

Coincidentally.

He had a set of armor with four high-rank Lu En characters in his hand, which was also the peak work of the gray dwarf race.

Gong De looked at Tang Zheng blankly.

!. Read

"What's your name?" Tang Zheng asked.

"Gong De! Gong De · Fa Ya Bi Ao De, old man is a Lu En technology development expert." Gong De shouted loudly, his face somewhat flushed.

A few low laughs came from the group of dwarves behind.

"Development expert? Sounds like a very impressive concept." Tang Zheng nodded, and then his gaze scanned the rest of the dwarf craftsmen:

"It seems that everyone already understands that I have no malice; what I need everyone's help with is not to forge a brand new Lu En item, but to replicate one."

While speaking.

Tang Zheng waved his palm, and a piece of armor that looked broken, and even had several holes the size of marbles, appeared in his hand.

He handed this broken armor to the Forging Minister beside him.

The Forging Minister took it solemnly, and then walked toward them under the gaze of a group of dwarves, finally unfolding the armor completely, exposing it to the field of vision of all the dwarf craftsmen.

Gong De was the first to look curiously.

The first thought of seeing this armor, besides being broken, was to notice the material used to manufacture this armor, which should be ore he had never seen before.

"This is..."

"Lu En characters I've never seen before!"

"And there are four; there are no these characters in the low-rank characters, are they middle-rank characters?"

"Not clear?"

"This armor is damaged too severely; the power of the Lu En characters has all been lost."

"Only four Lu En characters, what's so great about it? The legendary treasure of our dwarf race has 12 Lu En characters."

"..."

Following the four highest-rank Lu En characters that had never been seen before appearing in front of the dwarf craftsmen, all the dwarves surrounded it together.

"Hmph!"

The Forging Minister let out a light snort, even in the state of being "charmed by all races," he still emitted an arrogant voice: "Don't use your stupid brains to think about the greatness of this armor."

"These are four highest-rank Lu En characters!"

The air quieted down suddenly; all the dwarf craftsmen widened their eyes, looking at the Forging Minister incredibly, as if saying 'what kind of joke are you making'.

After a short silence.

The noisy sound of the dwarf craftsmen instantly resounded all around, and Gong De was even squeezed out from the crowd.

But soon!

Gong De crawled on the ground with his four limbs, using his head to hard-headedly open a route in the crowd, and crawled in front of the armor, looking at the four highest-rank characters on the armor with glowing eyes.

These were the Lu En characters they had already lost!

At this very moment, the dwarf craftsmen had already thrown the fear of just waking up and the thought of wanting to leave behind their heads, and all of them surrounded this piece of armor and competed to discuss it.

The Forging Minister spoke from time to time, explaining some means about Lu En technology, preparing for the next replication of this armor.

Seeing this scene.

Tang Zheng knew that this group of dwarves probably couldn't quiet down for a short time. He also needed to let this group of dwarf Lu En craftsmen understand how to replicate this armor through the Forging Minister.

Leaving the group of dwarves to argue with the Forging Minister.

Tang Zheng took the Evil Spirit Dog and walked to the mountain wall not far away, waiting while taking out a water bag from the item box.

This water bag just came out, and it started to emit wisps of steam; the material of the water bag was made of sturdy cowhide, exceptionally tough.

But in just such a short blink of an eye.

The water bag actually started to appear to soften, as if it couldn't withstand the power of the liquid inside the water bag, and would appear to break at any time.

This was precisely the blood that Tang Zheng used to store when the ancient fire dragon died.

Tang Zheng picked up the water bag and poured it into his mouth; the red liquid flowed out, and the rich fishy smell and scorching temperature entered his body along his throat.

After drinking all the dragon blood in the water bag in one breath.

The next moment!

Tang Zheng felt a heat flow suddenly emerge in his body; perhaps because of the "Fire Attribute Nullification" and "Complete Curse Resistance" abilities.

This heat flow was not strong, but extremely strong, but it didn't cause any influence or damage to Tang Zheng, just spreading messily in his body, making his aura somewhat surging and vibrating.

Thump!

Thump!

Tang Zheng seemed to feel the sound of his heart beating violently, silently perceiving the effect of the dragon blood, and a thought moved in his heart, looking at the attribute panel.

This kind of direct drinking of dragon blood to experiment with the effect, logically speaking, should first find other creatures to experiment with.

But just observing the Evil Spirit Dog drinking a trace of dragon blood and producing negative effects, Tang Zheng already understood that ordinary creatures couldn't withstand the power of dragon blood at all.

Let alone.

Being stained with a large amount of dragon blood would very likely cause a curse situation, so Tang Zheng could only personally feel this kind of change.

On one side.

The Evil Spirit Dog lay on the ground trembling all over, its eyes full of fear; the power emitted by the dragon blood in the water bag just now made its whole body limp.

Time passed bit by bit.

The attributes that had been motionless appeared to change again.

【HP: 449→450】

【Physical Defense: 248→249】

【Magic Defense: 263→264】

Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes; HP, physical defense, and magic defense actually increased by one point at the same time.

The last time the dragon blood entered his mouth, it wasn't much, so it only increased the HP value; this drinking of a large amount of dragon blood actually increased physical defense and magic defense at the same time.

"No job triggered, temporarily just an increase in three attributes."

Tang Zheng thought silently in his heart, feeling the chaotic, strong heat in his body that hadn't dissipated, and continued to stare at the attributes.
